If you believe that men aren't sensitive about their height, then I can't help but wonder how much dating experience you really have.* I know I'm throwing down the proverbial gauntlet with you here, and I don't mean to be mean-spirited, but what woman doesn't know that?


When one side casts judgment on the other side, the reasonable expectation*is that that side* should not itself guilty of the same transgressions.* If they are, that is hypocrisy.* Men are not the only ones who tell lies in the initial and subsequent phases of dating; myself, Jacquesne and a few others have provided ample proof that women lie too.* But that doesn't seem to get equal billing -- rather, excuses are being made as to what women do (it compliments my outfit, "I need all the help I can get,"*staying within a*certain weight limit is unreasonable and*cruel, men who want women to be physically fit and at least touch a treadmill*are unreasonable and*cruel, etc.)*while the general sentiment for men is that we have no excuse.* How can one not see the inherent unfairness in that?
You made comments, I responded to them, then you ignore them and go off on your tangent {again} about women 'lying' because they're doing things that once again I'll say I DO NOT DO. It might be hypocracy to*wear all that fake stuff*but until they tell you "I'm a 44D" and they show up as a 32AA they are not LYING.
If you want naked truth move to a nudist coloney. Good grief.


If we want to just use broad generalizations believe me, you don't want to go there with me because I've dealt with more scumbags up to this time than you will probably ever experience in your lifetime. Men can be SICK MO FOs... would YOU like to be painted with the brush that I*KNOW mankind to be??? Or shall I take you at face value and judge you by YOUR OWN deeds and words?


As far as EVERY man being height sensitive, sorry Mr All Knowing that *I* did not know. The guys I know seem to be very well adjusted. I know SOME men are sensitive about it, and some just have downright attitudes about it... those are the ones we (men and women)*avoid IRL here.


Like I said in the previous post, which you were responding to with the above post and you conveniently IGNORED AGAIN:*** NO ONE HAS SAID IN THIS THREAD THAT ONLY MEN LIE.
From what I've seen some men and some women lie. No one has said only men lie.
Very well stated Blackberry Addict. Your postings are clear, direct, and to the point. I find your analogies to be the most accurate, intelligent, and comprehensible. It’s unfortunate when some twist many of the topics on this board to create a gender war by validating their own genders’ poor behavior. Expecting our matches/dates to be truthful is more than reasonable… whether the topic is trivial and unimportant to you such as height, weight, or what you do for a living… Or sensitive and important such as height, weight, or what you do for a living. If you don’t know, you have the option to pass on the question.

women lie about their age and weight all the time!

Ditto. The double standard just reeks like a rotten, spitefullie.
